Abstract: This presentation will discuss evidence-based practice (EBP), with a focus on available research that supports the neurorehabilitation care of people with neurogenic disorders, including the increasingly large number of people from culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Presenters will provide the audience with preliminary findings of the ANCDS Diversity Writing group. Presenters will then provide the audience with thoughts about topics related to neurorehabilitation care of people from diverse communities, including topics relating to academic and clinical training, professional training, current practices, and conversation focused on cultural and linguistic considerations including the use of interpreters and translators. The presentation will pinnacle with the presentation of an interesting neurogenics case that will help to highlight key points raised during the presentation. The presentation will close by providing flexible time for audience members to dialogue about EBP and future research that is needed to promote personalized and equitable neurorehabilitation care for all.
Objectives:
The learner will be able to:
- Identify the three basic components involved with evidence-based practice.
- Discuss the adequacy of neurorehabilitation assessment and treatment published research to guide best clinical practices for people from both diverse and mainstream communities who have neurogenic communication and swallowing disorders.
- Outline neurorehabilitation research needed to support equitable care for all cases (those from diverse communities and those from mainstream communities).
